adidas Originals ZX 8000 JC & MT Consortium (2026) (Blue)

39 years later. Based on the adidas ZX 8000 C debut Aqua colourway from 1989, this modern 2026 interpretation introduces updated design features and technical details that refresh the shoe without leaving its history behind.

This tasteful upgrade, arriving nearly four decades after the original, bears the initials of Jacques Chassaing and Markus Thaler - the original fathers not only of the ZX 8000, but of the ZX line as a whole - as a deliberate tribute to the vision and craftsmanship that shaped the series. The shoe is complete with a torsion tongue loop, Torsion System, balanced cushioning, precise guidance, and stable support.
